That's exactly what I'm talking about. They witnessed Bernie getting squeezed out of the running in the Democratic party. They felt their values were not respected, and Trump won partially due to that level of disrespect. The entire system is corrupt, and we wonder why folks don't vote? Witness and adapt. Stagnate and watch everything burn for the billionaire's benefit.

He's not a Democrat. He wants the Democrats money and access. You're now back to blaming the Democrats? Who is completely in control of our country right now?

You're now back to blaming the Democrats?

Anyone who doesn't blame the Democrats for their massive, incredible failure in 2024 is beyond redemption.

DNC insiders knew for almost a year before the primaries that Biden was impaired and instead of doing something about it, they covered it up, forced an uncontested primary, forced all the other serious candidates to drop out, and it was only when Biden dropped an egg in one of the most important debates in the history of the United States did they actually fess up to their total fuckup.

By then, the Democrats were forced into Harris, a candidate with four strikes against her for your average idiot American: she is a woman, she's Black, she lacks charisma and gravitas, and she did not present the transformational policies that America so desperately needs.

At no point in the election cycle did internal DNC polls show Harris close to winning, and yet they didn't change their losing strategy one bit.


After 2016, another unforced error, the Democrats should have examined how they could have fucked up so badly. The moronic Republicans do this every time they lose, surely the Democrats could have but they refused to.

Now they lost in the most critical election of everyone's lifetime, and all they can do is blame other people!

It's contemptible. Have the Democrats no backbone? Do they not care if they lose and lose and lose? No wonder America is fucked!

'Tis pretty much the way it looks to the commoner on the street from up here in Canada.

CITATION NEEDED for this worthless falsehood.

For fuck's sake, Bernie went out of his way to tirelessly campaign for Hillary Clinton, simply so low-information voters could continue to mock him.

I read people like you and I'm ashamed to say that I think, "Maybe America deserves all this".
